VAIBHAV: I am so excited to have my first puzzle published in the Times. My name is Vaibhav (go by Vaibs) and I am based out of Brooklyn. I have been doing X-words with my mom since middle school and super excited to see one of my own puzzles in print!
As someone with two V's in their name, I was almost certain the VV stack would be the trickiest part. Knowing my forays through the dictionary as a middle schooler, there are very few words with two Vs in them (my name not included).
I would like to thank Matthew for all of his wisdom in the constructing process and for helping me turn my seed of an idea into a full-fledged grid.
If you haven't had a chance to see the original video, hopefully, it can be a great addition to your day!
